Reactor diagnostics

Neutron fluctuations in both low power systems (“zero power reactor noise”) and power reactors (“power reactor noise”) carry important information about the system. The origin of the fluctuations is different in these two regimes, and consequently, they are described by different mathematical methods, as well as that they have different characteristics and application areas.

The long-term economic viability of these advanced reactor plants depends on significant reductions in plant operations and maintenance costs. To accomplish these goals, intelligent control and diagnostic capabilities are needed to provide nearly autonomous operations with anticipatory maintenance. A nearly autonomous control system should enable automatic operation of a nuclear power plant while adapting to equipment faults and other upsets. It needs to have many intelligent capabilities, such as diagnosis, simulation, analysis, planning, reconfigurability, self-validation, and decision.
